I don't feel alright In spite of these comforting sounds You make I don't feel alright Because you make promises That you break Into your house Why don't we share our solitude? Nothing is pure anymore but solitude It's hard to make sense Feels as if I'm sensing you Through a lens If someone else comes I'll just sit here listening to the drums Previously I never called it solitude And probably you know All the dirty shows I've put on Blunted and exhausted like anyone Honestly I tried to avoid it Honestly Back when we were kids We would always know when to stop And now all the good kids are Messing up Nobody has gained or Accomplished anything

I love both versions of this song, but in different ways. Birdys cover gives me an emotional feeling and it really touches my heart and reminds me of loved ones that passes away. Mews version makes me think about life and reminds me to always treasure it. I love them both so much. (And just because this version may not be as good as mews version to some of you it doesn't mean this one sucks) it's actually very beautiful

+Lynn French I heard Birdys version before Mews and I have to say firstly its a beautiful cover ( now I know that!) , but mews is much more raw and stripped back. Birdy for me is an outstanding artist, her vocal tones are outstanding, whereas Mews are just as they are meant to be too. Its a song of two choices dependent on mood , both entrance me on listen on different occasions. guess Its just two different songs - both OUTSTANDING

this is song that will always capture a emotion. birdy's version is respectful in its execution and completely birdy at the same time.

Dear Birdy, you helped me finish the last part of book 2 in my tribute fantasy story, it should equal 190thousand words and was actually 120thousand thereabouts before the additions. Thank you so much. Its been in work progress since my father passed. It really showcases the last play of evil, setting the third story line of book 3. I think it sounds so cool as this song plays, a bit sad but nevermind all good romance fantasies are such things. Thank you again, Birdy, really!

For me, I believe this to be a pretty well accomplished tribute to my favorite song of all time. While I do appreciate the velvet-like quality of her tone and the frailness and vulnerability of her deeper vibratos, I however am not being sold on the emotional triumph that so invariably characterizes Mew's own performance of this song (most likely due to some weird phrasing decisions and the obvious distinction between her voice and the rather direct string section at the first few minutes of the song; what made "Comforting Sounds" so beautiful to me was the way in which Jonas' voice seemingly blended so nearly seamlessly with the less-than crisp string section, which was aided by, besides the similarity in tone of his voice and that of the strings, the help of the distortion of the continuous guitar riff). Nevertheless, the last few minutes of the song, as performed here, (i.e. the ones that really make this song come alive), are truly beautiful and reminiscent of the grandeur that Mew personally imbued into this song.

Its crazy that people hate this piece of art because this version is more famous than the owner one. I mean, she doesn't have to go 'everywhere to tell 'everyone' that this is not her song right? If she never did give him a credit, mew's could charged her already. But he didn't. Why? Well, from here you can guess why, because birdy is a well known artist too. She said million of times that the album is a cover album, the whole songs except 'without a word' is covers of other artists songs, she never said that this song is hers. Like come on, don't be butthurt about it. Mew doesn't even call her out!

When artist cover songs they do so out of respect not to make it better. Jasmine even said she thinks her covers are nowhere as good as the originals so Mew shippers there you go. ....besides this song is more about the background music that the singing anyways IMO
